So Millie has no problem using her name. She can say it perfectly and has been saying it now for about 3 months. :D

However in the last few weeks she has been calling herself Millwee. :rolleyes: It's hilarious. She really drags it out as well. We are not sure where she has picked it up from but I think she just prefers to say it this way.

So I was thinking, does anyone else have a birdie that pronounces their name differently or calls themselves something different to their own name.

:green: :green: :green:
 
Gonzo calls himself "Poopie" sometimes, as that's what his previous owner called him as well. Gonzo also calls my BFA Sydney "Murphy" or "Murph" since he grew up with another BFA named Murphy.

We also think he's trying to say "Byebye John" but it comes out "Byebye Gon." since he says "Byebye Gonzo"
 
Kyo thinks her name is Monkey, Go POOpIE, or Birdie, depending on the day.

Love my silly baby.
 
Foo calls herself "hi Foo" and "hello Foofanny"

Zekie, is Zekie followed with a compliment to himself. Such as "Zekie is such a pretty bird" "Zekie is a pretty baby baby bird" "Zekie zekie Zekie Zekie, So Cute!"
"Zekie is a hansom boy" Sometimes it's all put together and we get "Zekis is such a pretty hansom baby bird, So cute, kisses" followed by smoochy sounds.
 
My Sam says his name perfectly. He says Sam, Sammy, and Sammy-boy.

As soon as I pay attention to Hunter Sam will say: Good Sammy-GIRL. :rolleyes:

Niko refers to himself as a 'Stinker' after he's left a bruise. :54:
 
Sometimes I think Willow thinks her name is "Pretty Bird" of course, she thinks my name is "Pretty Bird" as well as the cats, dog, or really anyone she talks to, lol
 
Banjo refers to himself as good bird or Mean Mean bird, or so I thought.

It took a while to realize that banjo is just being condescending and calling me that...

When I feed him or cover him for the night,I am a good bird. When I ignore him and mess with the Macaws, I am a mean mean bird.
 
Xander calls himself Pretty Pretty Bird, and Ekko calls himself Bad Bird when he is doing something he shouldn't. He is not the master of subtlety, if he didn't do that he would actually get away with more..lol.
